Walkthrough

Whether entering from the double transom doors from the Euro-style swim platform or boarding through port or starboard bulwark doors, you will see the superior quality that sets a Marlow Explorer apart from its competitors. The Portuguese Bridge with high bulwarks allows movement both fore and aft. While lounging on the covered aft decks with custom built-in seating and a teak table, you will be amazed at the space on board. The arched ladder leading to the bridge deck is placed above a fiberglass cabinet-style access hatch. The door leads down to the crew cabin with sleeping for two and a complete head and separate shower. Forward of the crew cabin is the massive engine room and machinery space, the 6-foot plus headroom and the ability to move around the front and outside of both engines with ease makes this space most impressive. The transom access door from the lazarette storage area provides convenient access without disruption to the owners who may be aboard.

Just above on the aft deck, a door accesses the spacious main salon. All the way aft, twin leather recliners face an LG flat panel TV which is mounted in the forward end of the salon and surrounded by teak cabinetry and drawers. Opposing sofas feature seat bases that lift hydraulically to expose Formica-lined storage underneath. A teak hi-lo cocktail table complements teak blinds and teak and holly floors, and a custom round teak dining table, finished in high gloss, accents designer dining chairs.

The pilothouse, galley, and dining area are located up three steps from the salon. The island style galley includes luxury appliances accented by black galaxy granite countertops. The pilothouse helm is fully equipped with redundancy on all electronics including full navigation package. An overhead systems panel, standard on Marlow Explorers, provides readouts of the ship's systems.

The four staterooms, accessed from the pilothouse via a teak staircase, are custom finished in light maple artistically accented with teak trim and joinery, right down to the cabin doors which are finished in maple on the interior side and teak on the hallway side. German Schwepper door locks finish the look and feel of quality. The VIP stateroom is forward with a king centerline berth and a private head with a separate shower, all with nearly 7' headroom. Twin lockers are cedar lined and lighted, and the cabinetry is finely finished furniture. A hatch, just aft of the berth, provides access to the bow thruster and lower bilges finished in high gloss white awlgrip. Aft and to port is a guest stateroom with oversized single berths, also complete with a private head and separate shower. Stainless steel opening port lights supply plenty of light and ventilation. Opposite the guest stateroom is the 4th stateroom with queen sized berth, elevated to accommodate a washer and dryer, and teak sliding tambour doors which allow the area to be open or closed off for privacy.

Moving aft is a luxurious Owner's stateroom with a centerline king-size berth, a settee surrounded by lockers starboard, a beautifully finished vanity table surrounded by curved drawers portside, and full width his and her heads aft, each fully outfitted with luxury granite sinks and pewter and gold Grohe fixtures, adding to the rich feel of this yacht. A finely crafted desk with a chair and Shoji privacy screen are forward.

Salon

As you enter from the large aft deck, your attention is drawn to the salon view forward. This area has a large lounging area, a dining table, and a built-in desk to starboard. Two oversized camel leather recliners are situated to face forward and view the flat panel TV mounted at the forward end of the salon. Two built-in sofas in a very plush blue with gold accented fabric. There is storage beneath the sofas, and they have hinged bases raised by hydraulic lifts. In front of the starboard sofa is a teak hi-lo cocktail table. To port in the salon are an end table, a brown leather ottoman (to match the recliners), and a U-Line wine cooler. To starboard forward of the seating areas, there is a built-in desk with file drawers and a slide-out printer cabinet. The centerpiece of the dining area is a beautiful inlaid teak table with black and gold trim with a sculpted circular lighting area above. There are six custom upholstered dining chairs.

Galley and Laundry Equipment

Just three steps up from the salon is the large galley and dinette. There is plenty of room for up to six people to sit in the dinette. The dinette and Captain's Stidd helm chair are covered in camel leather, while the dinette tabletop is black galaxy granite, as is the galley countertop. There are many storage cabinets in the galley, and one is a complete counter height slide-out spice rack. There is plenty of refrigeration and other galley amenities to make your voyages enjoyable.

The lower helm is forward in the galley area and is spacious and laid out, so visibility is never a problem. The helm is large enough to handle a large array of state-of-the-art electronics, and the special teak encapsulated stainless steel wheel looks more like a work of art than a mere helm apparatus. In addition to the electronics, the overhead monitoring panel tells you about the rest of the ship's systems. In this pilothouse area, there are port and starboard watertight doors that slide out and lock in their open position, giving great access to the bow and stern while docking. There are retractable screens on both pilothouse doors.
